Analyze Existing Space and Envision the Transformation

What happens here

Begin by analyzing the existing backyard space, which in this case, is a typical grassy lawn adjacent to a house with a small existing patio/deck. Understand the client's vision for a complete outdoor living area, including specific elements like a swimming pool, outdoor cabana, an elevated hot tub, and a fire pit. This initial phase involves brainstorming and outlining the desired features to be incorporated into the design.

Goal: Understand the current backyard landscape and define the desired future state and features.
